  1. 1 Btu = 2.93071070172e-7 MWh
  2. 1 × 2.93071070172e-7 = 2.93071070172e-7 MWh

How to convert british thermal units to megawatt-hours

1 Btu = 2.93071070172 × 10⁻⁷ MWh, so multiply by 2.93071070172 to go from British thermal units (IT) to megawatt-hours. Going the other way, 1 MWh = 3,412,141.63313 Btu.

MWh = Btu × 2.93071070172
Btu = MWh × 3,412,141.63313

Worked example:

1 Btu = 2.93071070172e-7 MWh
5 × 2.93071070172e-7 = 1.46535535086e-6 MWh
